The Hurricanes will open the regular season Sept. 19, when they welcome the Calgary
Hitmen at 7 p.m. at the VisitLethbridge.com Arena.
It will mark the 10th time in team history the ‘Canes will host the Hitmen in their home opener and the first since the 2021-2022 season, when Lethbridge earned a 9-2 victory.
